The third proportional of x2.5y1.5\frac{x^2.5}{y^1.5} ×\times ZZ3.5 and X0.25 and x0.25 ×\times y0.25z−0.25\frac{y ^0.25}{z^-0.25} is _______________

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. y2x2Z3\frac{y^2}{x^2Z^3} .

A = x2.5 / y1.5 × z3.5

B = x0.25 × y0.25 / z-0.25 = x0.25 y0.25 z0.25

Third proportional = B² / A

B² = x0.5  y0.5 z0.5

So, B² / A = (x0.5 y0.5 z0.5) / (x2.5 y-1.5 z3.55)

= x-2 y2 z-3

= y² / (x² z³)
